The management team will be forced into changes because the fixture is outside World Rugby’s official Test window. That means that 13 members of the Wales squad  and 10 players from last weekend’s 52-26 defeat by New Zealand  have returned to clubs in England and France.

However, Tandy is handed a boost by the return to fitness of Dragons number eight Wainwright, who was a late withdrawal from the planned XV to face the All Blacks because of a hip injury.
